Description
++ Exit to Humanity++ (Behind the Gates of Heaven)
According to some, we approach a blinding light in our dying moments. It consumes, covers, and embraces us. It is what brings us to our next level.
Where exactly does this light lead to, though? If it's the entrance to Heaven, then this photo is looking back through the gates. Go through it and return to Humanity.
Enjoy!

It's crazy (to me) to think that I uploaded this nearly 5 years ago! Glad to see it still has an affect.

I can't take credit for the irony, but I'll gladly pretend.

With the shot and the description come the classic "Is the cup half empty or half full?" question. However, it's gven to us now in a much more complex manner. I thought at first it the gate you pass to leave heaven because of that faint exit sign on the left. Then i realize, well that doesn't mean much, it could show the exit of life.
I have to say, the angle of this shot is really nice. Instead of a straightforward one that would have been done by most, you tilted it a bit wich is great.
Now, what i think really adds that small touch of perfection is that arrow. Which ever way you see it, going to or leaving heaven, it adds much more room for though.
all this from a parking garage opening. lol great work.

Insane pic. I love the lighting. My favourite part is the way the arrow points away from the light, great symbolism. +fav

PS: "Moments Of Silence" = "Moments Of Decay", i'm messing around with the titles of my series sometimes.
PS 2 : I also do like that arrow... it adds something special to the photo.
PS 3 : FAV!

Wow... i love the lightning! That light - for me in the meaning of "the end of life" - is something i like to use in my manipulations or photos too, like e.g. in "Reborn" or the last part of my "Moments Of Silence" series. Anyway, beside of that all i do like the whole setting for this photo. Great!

there are too many words and thoughts to say about this piece... it's not my total favorite, but nonetheless, it's an amazing picture... captured beautifully... being that I know that the "blinding light" is natural to everyone, it's not as special as you say, but your words express this work better than anything I could think of... good job nate... love it!

Excellent photo. And I'm sure you've heard that alot throughout your past 64 comments, but hey, it's the truth. Only critisizm I have is that I don't care for how wavy the lines are near the bottom/center.

Go to the light Suzanne!!
I like it, but I had to read your description twice... If we were already in the light (Heaven) then wouldn't we be facing the other direction (into the parking garage/dark), instead of at the light? I'm sorry to be so trivial, because it really is a good shot.
love me.

Its actually looking out on reality from your mental state, the place where you feel comfortable (realm of the mind) is beeing shattered by the seering light that invades your realm...
or it could just be a carpark exit
either way, I like these words.....
Very nice picture

Very cool concept.. I like how you transformed the typical parking garage shot into a theme-oriented shot. That can be hard to do. Great job.
